Keep in touch with colleagues and friends in less than 140 characters. Good for keeping track of current trends, publicizing events and polling (in and out of the classroom).
TwtPoll is just one of a number of products created by TwtApps. Some of the others include Twtcards and Twtvite. This service allows users to create more than 17 different types of polls and syncs with Facebook, Twitter and Friendfeed. Rather than polling within the tool, response participants are redirected to Twtpoll via a short URL.
Poll Daddy allows users to create polls in WordPress and offers a Twitter service. This service allows question publishers to add as many multiple choice answers as they want. From here a user's poll is sent out via a link to their Twitter account.
Strawpoll offers users the opportunity to create 140 character polls in Twitter itself. Rather than redirecting users off the site to give their answers, the tool allows Twitter followers to choose from one of two responses directly in their Twitter dashboard. Users only have to visit Strawpoll if they want to see the final tally.
